Like this post says, I am a NW 2-3 and looking at a couple of options for HT. Since I live in chicagoland I have been talking to Dr. Konior and Dr. Nadami and they are priced on the high end. Other options are Turkey and Korea but I am less excited at the propsect of 14 day quarintine and the risk of surgery and recovery out of the country. Any advice from you all? -
Alright guys, Christmas came early, I’m currently trying to set up a time and date for our live session. But I want to get some questions from the community. Once I have a concrete time and date I’ll announce it here. As an industry leader, Konior is widely regarded as one of the very best in all of the world. Dr. Nadimi is proving herself to be a real top notch doctor in her own right, apprenticing under one of the best. I’ll choose the best 5 questions and ask them for you guys. That said, everyone of you guys can join the live session and ask him/her questions in real time. -
Well Dr Paul Rose agreed to the widows peak hairline that I drew same with Dr. Konior. Neither felt that I was unreasonable. Otherwise they wouldn’t have agreed. -
Top 5 FUE/FUT docs, 2020 edition
miko replied to whattheFUE's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
I spoke to Dr. Konior. He estimated me for 2000 grafts and the price is 25.000,- USD. I don´t know if this is not his new price for HT. -
Hello all. Little background first. I visited Dr. Konior's office 4 years ago and met with his assistant. He did the consult and some of the things I left with were a $17500+ price for 2000 grafts & have to be on Propecia for the rest of my life. I was worried about the long term effects of Propecia and that was the reason I declined. After talking this summer with a doctor, they informed me how the body processes the drug and how it doesn't affect the kidneys/liver. So I wrote Dr. Konoir and he is booked out for over a year and suggested I talk to Dr. Nadimi. I met with -
Previous thread on first procedure with Dr. K with sole goal to rebuild the frontal zone: Second procedure on January 23, 2019, approx 1200 grafts: -400 in the front to lower hairline and address left temporal recession -200 feathered behind and through mid scalp -600 on crown which were multiple hair grafts. Doc spent a lot of time this time around laying out the days plan, drew a lot of lines and took a lot of photos since we were 'refining' and not 'rebuilding' the front - eventually came up with the idea of a subtle widows peak to address my desire to lo -
Dr. Konior will only be answering questions regarding surgery. Things like his schedule, wait times, etc can be answered by him directly via email. The purpose of this live session will be for education regarding his approach to surgery, and his philosophies. Now, questions regarding strip scar numbness, recover, etc, that's more within the realm of the questions he'll be answering.

Hello everyone, Around seven years ago I had a 4,100 grafts FUT procedure with Dr. Rahal, in which he mostly worked on the front/mid scalp. Overall, I was very satisfied with the hairline he created, and the obtained results. However, during these years -most likely- I have lost the remaining native hair I had by that time, and hence overall density, so lately my hair had a more thin appearance. For that reason, after thinking about it, I tried to schedule a new appointment with Dr. Rahal. Due to COVID restrictions it wasn't easy, so I started to make a new Dr. research. I contacted Dr. -
Hey everyone, I'm about two days out from my ~2300 graft FUT procedure with Dr. Konior. As often happens with Konior, he initially quoted me 1500 grafts but wound up going all the way up to 2300 to pack everything in more densely. It was one of the smoothest and most painless medical experiences of my life, and the whole thing took about 12 hours. I'd take a hair transplant over getting cavities filled at the dentist any day. I'd like to start by thanking the past Konior patients who have documented their procedures so thoroughly. Spanker, Reyes1, SamSpade, and the various Matts (among ot -
Don't be mad at me man. I never intended to go to Turkey by the way. My dream goal is to make a consultation with the HT GOAT Dr. Konior. You are very lucky to have your HT done by him, his procedures are a work of art and your results were flawless (as expected). Actually, seeing your case is one of the reasons I got motivated to consider having a HT done in the first place. -
FUE (with BHT): NW 6/7
James C replied to InTheSix's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Yeah, dr. konior said He’s harvested 7-8k fue scalp grafts before. Obviously the guy must of had good donor quality. Mine is very dense myself. I’m also heading towards a Norwood 5/6ish all said and done. So i either put faith in a surgeon harvesting that many fue grafts plus beard grafts for additional coverage... or take the advice of many & go fut because I’ll end up an advanced pattern. -
I mentioned this to Dr. Konior and he said it was a good idea. I just haven’t seen it done. I agree, I keep my hair at #1 and at that length the hair is indistinguishable from scalp hair.

Hey all! Decided to make a post here, because I wanted to track my experience from the beginning. I am a soon to be 28 year old and a fairly fit male. I have been on finasteride and minoxidil for around 6 years and attempted to get a HT at age 23, but was turned down due to young age. Now at an older age I decided to just do it! I was told I needed around 1500 grafts for a dense-pack fill. Let me know if you guys have any interest or questions in regards to my story. Note: at the time of my procedure I had just turned 28. i decided last year around September that I was comforta -
Deplete entire donor area
Melvin-Moderator replied to True's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
This has been asked before, no ethical surgeon would agree to this. From my conversation with Dr. Konior, he said at some point the donor becomes as important as the recipient. Otherwise, you’re exchanging one bald area for another. -
When I visit a truly excellent A+ hair transplant clinic I leave inspired and confident in knowing that patients who find their way from our website to this community will achieve outstanding results. The patient may not fully appreciate how exceptional this clinic's work really is. But the physician and staff know it and for them their pride in doing their very best for the patient is its own reward. This was true in spades for Dr. Konior and his staff. I have visited the Chicago metro area on more than one occasion to identify quality hair transplant services and in my opinion Dr -
Question about Dr Konior/Dr Nadimi
PizzaWolf replied to Jreinhal's topic in Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews
Have you checked out Dr. Nadimi's results on here and instagram to make sure you like her aesthetic approach? You shouldn't go into surgery with Nadimi based on her association with Konior, especially if you were interested in Konior to begin with. How long was the virtual consultation? -
Question about Dr Konior/Dr Nadimi
champybaby replied to Jreinhal's topic in Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews
I'm a 2x Konior patient. Just had second procedure. I also sent a friend to him, where Dr Nadimi performed the surgery and his results looked amazing. There's a reason why there's a backlog for consultations ... Konior and Nadimi are that good. I've gotten to know Konior well over almost a decade. Based on what I know about the guy ... he wouldn't associate his name with anyone unless they were legit a prodigy. If you're looking for savings, you can certainly find other docs. If you're looking for best-in-class results, then you go to Konior. Waiting sucks. All Konior patients have w -
Considering Doctor
babakabo replied to babakabo's topic in Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews
Thank you, John. I assume Dr Cooley makes the incisions for the grafts and the techs place the grafts? Is he there the entire time? I was looking at at this board's favorites and it seems Dr Konior does quality work, but most report his prices are on a whole other level as well as his wait list. Dr. Bloxham has some nice results too, but Cooley is closest to me as I live in GA. They say don't choose a surgeon based on location, but Cooley may be an exception? Also, I am keeping a close eye on @firstFUT results, hoping they are great! -
What are you talking about? Dr. Konior is involved in every step of surgery when you have surgery with him, but he has a junior physician in Nadimi which handles her own surgeries.

You have some great doctors on that list. There is also Dr. Konior, Dr. Bloxham and Dr. Wong who is a perfectionist. -
Top 5 FUE/FUT docs, 2020 edition
smurf replied to whattheFUE's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
But I agree, a top doctor like Konior is a different product/level of service. He quoted me $12/graft FUE and is booked for 18 months! This is an artists handbuilding ferrari engines. I opted for his associate Dr. Nadami instead at $8/graft FUE and 4 month waitlist. Both doctors hand extract and transplant each and every graft vs outsourcing this to a technician. I wouldnt bash either approach, but I consider this a diffferent service level being paid for. I opt for handbuilt vs outsourced due to the risk and my willingness to pay upfront and get the job right the first time -
~3k Grafts FUT Frontal Restoration
deitel130 replied to Taken4Granted's topic in Hair Restoration Results Posted by Patients
Starting to come along. Dr. Konior has been putting out some exceptional results and yours looks to be coming along great as well. Congrats and let the growing begin. -
The goal of FUE and why you pay the extra premium is less visible scarring allowing for the flexibility to wear shorter hairstyles. How this is executed by a particular surgeon on a patient by patient basis varies widely as you know. Dr. Konior has put on a clinic with your donor. I couldn't even see excisions even from your early posts. I am like "1600 units excised? From where? Your spare body parts clone growing in the bacta tank?" I didn't even know your donors were extracted asymmetrically until it was just mentioned. I didn't even believe it until you confirmed it. Remarkable. This calls- 145 replies

So basically one side. You just said what I said in another thread, except this time it's a surgeon you respect. I have never said that it is standard practice. I haven't appointed myself the authority on surgical and industry standards. In fact, I have always said that there is no one-size-fits-all for surgery. That includes the notion of a so-called "universal safe zone" when I met with Dr. Konior back in August 2018, he took a look my donor, and he said he could take hair from my nape. He saw no miniaturization there, conventional so-called 'industry standards' would dictate that this
